I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my stew turned out watery. I think I might have added too much liquid.

This stew was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I love the combination of flavors in this stew. The sweetness of the plantains and the heat of the peppers complement each other perfectly.

I made this stew in my slow cooker, and it turned out great! It was so easy to throw everything in the pot in the morning, and then dinner was ready when I got home from work.

This stew was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I will use less pepper.

This Caribbean stew was an absolute delight to make! The flavors were so rich and vibrant, and the stew had a lovely, thick consistency. I served it with some crusty bread, and it was the perfect comfort food on a cold night.
